Cost Reduction
By aligning IT purchasing cycles with the NVIDIA Business Platform’s yearly cadence, IT managers can qualify a system only once per year within their environment and continue to buy an identical PC image from system builders for at least one year. IT managers will no longer need to re-qualify multiple times per year and per system builder, saving countless person-hours that can be re-assigned to higher value projects. Through partnerships with leading remote management software vendors, NVIDIA Business Platform certified remote management software solutions allow IT managers to distribute critical software updates and manage security policies across their organization from a central console.
